Abstract

Conceiving the judicial scene as a fundamental instance in the construction of social representations, this article will review the judgements in trials for crimes committed during the last dictatorship in Argentina (1976-1983) pronounced in 2015, with the aim of reconstructing the representations of reparation that underlie them. The hypothesis that guides this inquiry is that there is a relationship between the representations of reparation and legal qualifications of the crimes under judgment, as long as the last ones have differential effects on the construction of meanings about the past.
